At Americans for Prosperity Ohio, we are thrilled to present the 2025-2026 Buckeye Blueprint Policy Agenda—our bold vision for advancing Economic Freedom, Energy Abundance, and Education Opportunity in the Buckeye State.
This is our second Buckeye Blueprint Policy Agenda, and with it, we are doubling down on our commitment to building a bolder, better Buckeye state for ALL Ohioans. Through this agenda, we aim to empower individuals, grow communities, and enact transformational reforms that will propel Ohio to new heights
Over the past 20+ years Ohio has removed tax brackets, lowered rates, and slashed regulations. Top 10 states, on the other hand, aren’t incremental, and we shouldn’t be either.
Since Ohio enacted the Personal Income Tax in 1972, it has lost 8 congressional seats, dropping from 23 to 15 by 2023. Meanwhile, Florida’s seats increased from 15 to 28. By reducing taxes and enhancing the business climate, Ohio can improve its citizens’ financial well-being and regain competitiveness for congressional representation.
Economic Freedom is a cornerstone of our vision, and it’s an area where we have a proud history of accomplishment. Yet, more work remains to ensure every Ohioan has the opportunity to thrive. By championing policies like REINS Act, a phase out of the income tax, and working to advance prosperity tax reform, we can unleash Ohio’s full economic potential and make our state a magnet for growth and opportunity.
The Buckeye Blueprint is more than a policy agenda—it’s a movement. We engage communities, empower coalitions, and embolden policy champions to challenge the status quo and deliver real results. Together, we will ensure Ohio leads the way in creating opportunities, fostering innovation, and empowering families.
With your partnership, we can continue the important work of shaping the Buckeye State into a national leader—a place where freedom, prosperity, and opportunity thrive.
